Attn: Wedding Vendors … Awesome Contest: Free Online Marketing!

My name is Suzanne Franco Land and I’m the founder of “The Destination Wedding Site.”

I’m super excited to announce the first contest / drawing for wedding vendors here on The Destination Wedding Site. This contest is really more of a drawing because I like it when everyone has an equal chance of winning … don’t you?

So what’s the deal? Well, in addition to running this website I’m also an online marketing and SEO (search engine optimization) expert. And … in the spirit of doing some networking and promoting the site to wedding vendors I’m offering some amazing prizes up for grabs.

I’m holding a simple/fun drawing where I’m offering up my online marketing services to the lucky winners of the drawing.

Let’s look at what’s up for grabs:
